Jiaohua

Chapter 275
The half-closed wooden door was opened, Lu Ningjin came in with a medicine bowl, put it on the small table next to the bed, and looked at the sleeping girl on the bed.

The girl slept peacefully, the wound on her face was cleaned, her original facial features were delicate and beautiful, similar to Ah Li.

"The medicine is still hot, you can cool it down," Lu Ningjin said, "Ali, is she okay?"

Xia Zhaoyi sat by the bed and shook his head.

"Oh," Lu Ningjin sighed softly, and took out a letter from his sleeve, "Mr. Yan Hui asked me to give it to you."

Xia Zhaoyi turned his head, slowed down, and reached out to receive it.

Lu Ningjin looked at her, and said in a low voice, "Ali, please be happy, you seem to be very preoccupied."

"Well, I was thinking about something." Xia Zhaoyi said, opening the letter.

The content of the letter was that there were several difficult deals in Qingque Pavilion, and that someone brought Mei Duo to find her.

Xia Zhaoyi put away the letter paper, got up and said, "When the medicine is warm, wake her up and feed her."

"Can she...can hear me?" Lu Ningjin said.

"I can't," Xia Zhaoyi looked at the girl on the bed, "She can't speak anymore."

"very pitiful……"

Xia Zhaoyi went to collect the pens and papers on the desk, and Lu Ningjin looked back at her: "In this case, she won't be able to tell us her name, otherwise, let's take one."

"Come on," Xia Zhaoyi said, "I won't name people."

Lu Ningjin pursed her lips and nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and look through the books and give her a nice name."

"Well," Xia Zhaoyi looked at the medicine bowl, "Remember to feed her the medicine, I'll go first."

"it is good."

Coming out of the room, the middle-aged man was sitting in the outer room, playing with dice boringly.

Seeing Xia Zhaoyi, the middle-aged man hurriedly put away the dice.

"I'm going out for a while, you don't have to follow, help grind the medicine powder here, they will count you a little wage." Xia Zhaoyi said.

"Grind medicine powder... how much is the wages?"

"Not much, not much. If you don't want to stay here, you can go back to the inn first."

After Xia Zhaoyi finished speaking, he turned and walked outside. Before the middle-aged man could speak again, the door was already closed.

Huiyang Long Street is now one of the coldest streets in the whole of Kyoto. When Xia Zhaoyi came to Qingque Pavilion, there were quite a few people coming and going in front of the gate. The shopkeepers were running back and forth, and the business was very good.

These diners were either rich or expensive, and their appearance and dress showed that their status was not low. Xia Zhaoyi knew that the drunkard's intention was not to drink, so she didn't want to show her face, so she made a big circle and entered from the other side.

She was already a regular visitor here, and the steward came out to welcome her in and waited in a small hall in the backyard.

The hall is open on three sides, clean and bright, with excellent lighting, and there is half of the lake between the front hall.

The steward brought tea and said with a smile: "Miss Ali, wait a minute, Mr. Yan will be there when he returns."

"Thank you." Xia Zhaoyi said.

The manager left, Xia Zhaoyi looked at the maidservants who were standing by and said, "You guys go to work too, you don't need to stay with me here."

"Yes." The maids responded.

A breeze blew outside the window, and the two gauze curtains hanging slightly on the side were raised.

Xia Zhaoyi picked up the tea, soaked in the best hair tip, she took a sip, the taste was mellow, tender and elegant.

She looked at the emerald green tea leaves inside, her eyes became sad.

Her father's favorite drink was also Maojian. Every time she went back to Beijing, she would always bring some back along the way.

Also, her father always wanted her to stay in the capital for a while, but she couldn't stay there. Since she was a child, she has never lived in the capital for more than a month.

Not yet, I've been here for a long time now.

Li Yanhui stepped on the wooden steps and said with a smile, "Ali."

Xia Zhaoyi raised his head, bent his lips and smiled: "Mr. Yanhui."

"Yesterday, you made troubles all over the city again." Li Yan replied with a smile.

"It's not me, and I didn't want to make a fuss like this."

Li Yanhui sat down beside her and said, "Isn't it you? Someone pretended to be you?"

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and shook his head: "No, the cause of the incident was that Ren Yazi was killed, I mean I didn't kill her, if Mr. Yanhui was talking about the incident in Yanyunwei Mansion later, then it was indeed me. , but I was forced."

"That's weird." Li Yan raised his eyebrows back, "Now it's rumored everywhere that you did it. At that time, there was a letter from the Jingzhao Mansion saying that you wrote the letter, and there were many people on it. Yazi confessed before his death where the girl who had been sold was, the market has mixed praise and criticism for you now, and many people have been praising you."

"It's not me," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Mr. Yanhui, who sent that plum blossom?"

"It's not one." Li Yanhui took out a box from his sleeve, pushed it over and said, "It's two."

Xia Zhaoyi opened the small box, and there were really two plum blossoms lying inside, woven with trees and grass leaves, fresh and clean.

She sent out two in total, one Tao Yinhe, one Old Tong and Zhi Changle.

"Where are they?" Xia Zhaoyi said, "Did anyone say what they want from me?"

"I just want to see you," Li Yan smiled back, "I asked them to come back at night, and deliberately staggered the time."

Xia Zhaoyi nodded, took out Mei Duo, closed the box and pushed it back.

"Is there anything else you can ask me, sir? If not, I have a few things I want to ask sir."

"Fortunately, just a few tricky deals, I'll show you later, you can ask first."

"Well," Xia Zhaoyi said, "I'm asking two things. The first thing is, how is Li Dongyan's situation now? The second thing is, I want to ask my husband to help me find out how much money the court allocated for disaster relief two years ago. The silver taels, and who were the officials and the luggage team that escorted the silver taels and bought the luggage at that time."

"What happened two years ago?"

"Yes," Xia Zhaoyi nodded, "It should be possible to check at the Ministry of Household Affairs. Qingque Pavilion is well connected. Please help me check it out, sir. Feel free to ask for any price."

Li Yan frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said, "That's fine, let's not mention the price for now, I'll talk about it when I can find someone."

"Thank you sir." Xia Zhaoyi smiled.

"The first thing is Li Dongyan's situation," Li Yanhui said, "I don't know for now, because he hasn't been out of the palace since he entered yesterday."

Xia Zhaoyi paused: "Have you come out yet?"

"Yes, it's been a day and a night," Li Yan smiled back, "However, I shouldn't have any results."

"What do you mean by this, sir?"

Li Yan smiled back and lowered his head, picked up the teapot and poured water into his cup.

As the sound of water subsided, he put down the teapot, picked up the teacup and said, "Ali, do you think it's serious that something happened at Chongtiantai?"

"It should be the country's great grief." Xia Zhaoyi said.

"But you see what happens next."

Follow-up, where is there any follow-up.

Xia Zhaoyi shook his head.
